Bubble tip Anemone problems

[Guppy4Life]

Hey guys. I bought this bubble tip Anemone about a week and half ago. It's in my 10 gallon nano tank. Water parameters are good. I have a Kessil A80 running on it. My Anemone keeps releasing this brown weby looking stuff every few days. Is it unhealthy? Is my light to strong?

The brown stuff is the waste it expels from it's mouth. It's normal. I always siphon it out whenever I see it floating around in my tank.

I had A80 for btas, haddoni carpet, and ltas. All grew very well. So your light is ok. Just keep checking the water parameters. 10 gallon is on the smaller side but should be ok.

Do you keep your light on full power? Mines always set to low

He looks very unhappy.
I would think the brown was him expelling some zoo.
You say parameters are good. Can you post those numbers?
Water chemistry changes quickly in a 10g, an nem hates change, tolerates different ranges, but not change well.

He is new so he may just need time.....

I keep on high and keep it close to the water surface, around 5 inches above. A80 is not a strong light.

All nems LOVE light, provide as much as you can and he will adjust himself
Light and its internal zoo, provide most of the Nems nutiutional requirements.
